Quickly create links for just about anything
You know how best to deliver your expertise. By default, we arrange a paid 30 minute video call to discuss your customer's issues and requirements. With Custom Links you can do so much more.
We keep everything transparent. No complicated tiering structures, no banding based on hours worked.
Set your fee for a 30 minute call. When you a customer sends a request, we take payment and hold the money. Once you've had the call, we pay you, immediately.
If the issue requires more work, you can send a quote through Ringer for a project fee.
We charge a 15% fee directly to the user seeking help, and of that 15% we give 5% (33.33˙% of the 15%) back to the project that the request is regarding.
We know that a high number of contributors can't accept payment for their work on open source projects.
We also allow you to set your payouts to go either directly to the project that you are providing support on, or to a number of open source foundations.
